How do you get out of a marriage if your spouse wont leave? I have
only been married 5 years but its fife years too long. Ower first year
together was great, he was my prince charming. The DAY after we said I
do everything changed. At first I didnt want to be rude because I
thought his new attitude came from the fact that he was legally
devorced 6 months before he remarried. The fact that I loved him so
much and understood his horrable upbringing keep me from being my self
and telling him off. Even after he hit me when I was pregnant with his
baby. I believed that he just needed to realize life isnt all about
pain and misery. I thought after talking about ower problems for over
2 years he understood that if he was mad all he had to do is calmly
tell me and we could work it out. We moved and things got increasing
worse. Not so much the hitting (that part got better) but the mental
was so bad. Three months ago I tried to slit my wrist after telling
him I'd rather die then llive with him another day. Since then he has
gotten better he's not abusing me at all but he still so angry every
day. The only time he comes home happy is when he wants to have sex. I
have told him thats not enouph for me and I cant be with someone so
deressing. The police wont make him leave unless he touches me again.
So how do I convince him to leave?

YOU leave!!  I'm sure there are shelters in your area for abused
women.  Call your local police department and ask them for
information.  You don't wait for a man who hits  and mentally abuses
you to leave first.

Im terrified of taking the kids to a shelter. I know how stupid that
sounds considering being here isnt much better but at least they know
ower home.

Hey......
I took my kids to a shelter.  It's not forever. It's better than being
stuck out on the street at 4 am.
It's also better than living the hell of a horrible relationship.
The shelter has links to programs and services that can help you, be
it starting up on your own or acquiring counselling to repair your
damaged relationship and get your husband some help.

Do you have any relatives who would put you up temporarily? Or is there any
money for a hotel/apartment?

I don't know - but he can't make you stay, if you want to leave.  You could
just move out yourself.

When I was 5 years old my mother took myself and younger brother to a
shelter. I was confused, but I knew we were safe. I knew my mother was
safe and on the path to becoming happy once again. I'm not encouraging
a shelter, that would be an alternate choice in my mind, first try
family and friends. My mother did not really have an option. I think
if you want something bad enough, the only thing that can hold you
back is your own mind. The question you should ask yourself is, what's
the worse or the two options, my children living with this man (who
can abuse a child as they get older and begin to remind him of you,
their mother) or getting out of there and giving them and yourself a
better chance at a better life hunny. It all comes down to your will.

The funny thing is Im 23 and for some reason Im affraid of what my dad
will think. He keeps telling me it would break his heart to see
another marriage go down. We both just resently had to kick my sister
out of ower lives and I kicked my mom out too. He's still working on
that one. They are crack addicts who believe invisable people touch
them in the shower. I never had much of a family until all this came
out. Now I have a relationship with my dad and Im scared of
dissapointing him. He has no clue whats going on. I keep telling my
self Im 23 Im a big girl now and I have to make choices based on whats
good for me. But when I talk to him its so sad and Im trying so hard
to help him I dont want to hit him with another bomb shell. He thinks
I have an almost perfect life now. He has told me several times now
that if it wasnt for my supporting him he would of killed himself by
now. Thats why I want my husband to leave. If he goes I dont have to
explain as much.
